Adventures with Baloo the Bear







Giselle has been attending this June Holiday Programme at Julia Gabriel during this week and I must say it was quite a interesting Speech and Drama class. This was held Mon-Fri, 9am - 11am at the Forum Shopping Mall.

It was a adventurous week of fun and discovery, as the kids survived the vast Madagascan jungle. They trusted Baloo the Bear to guide them along the way.

The children has fun with songs, games, moving and speaking rhymes and catchprases, that help to stimulate the imagination and enhance communications. Listening and cognitive skills are engaged as they learn about survival skills, through the use of stories and drama. In addition, the little adventurers engage in art and craft and literacy activitives to develop their fine-motor and concentration skills.




Teacher Fiona said Giselle, though as little quiet has been speaking well during class time. During the last day of the lessons, parents were invited into the classroom during the last 20mins to hold a "press conference" with the kids and we parents, were asked to act as reporters posting questions to the group :)
